1 Tad Gars Jēzu aizveda tuksnesī, ka Tas taptu velna kārdināts. 2 Un, kad Viņš četrdesmit dienas un četrdesmit naktis bija gavējis, tad Tam gribējās ēst. 3 Un kārdinātājs piestājās pie Viņa un sacīja: "Ja Tu esi Dieva Dēls, tad saki, lai šie akmeņi top par maizi." 4 Bet Viņš atbildēja un sacīja: "Stāv rakstīts: cilvēks nedzīvo no maizes vien, bet no ikkatra vārda, kas iziet no Dieva mutes." 5 Tad velns Viņu noveda sev līdzi uz svēto pilsētu, uzcēla Viņu pašā Dieva nama jumta galā un saka: 6 "Ja Tu esi Dieva Dēls, tad nolaidies zemē, jo stāv rakstīts: Viņš Saviem eņģeļiem par Tevi pavēlēs, un tie Tevi nesīs uz rokām, ka Tu Savu kāju pie akmens nepiedauzi." 7 Tad Jēzus tam sacīja: "Atkal stāv rakstīts: Dievu, savu Kungu, tev nebūs kārdināt." 8 Atkal velns To ved sev līdzi uz ļoti augstu kalnu un rāda Viņam visas pasaules valstis un viņu godību, 9 un Viņam saka: "To visu es Tev gribu dot, ja Tu, zemē mezdamies, mani pielūgsi." 10 Tad Jēzus viņam saka: "Atkāpies, sātan! Jo stāv rakstīts: tev būs Dievu, savu Kungu, pielūgt un Viņam vien kalpot." 11 Tad velns Viņu atstāja. Un redzi, eņģeļi pie Viņa piestājās un Viņam kalpoja. 12 Bet Jēzus, dzirdēdams, ka Jānis nodots, atgriezās Galilejā. 13 Viņš atstāja Nacareti un aizgāja dzīvot Kapernaumā, piejūras pilsētā, Zebulona un Naftaļa robežās, 14 ka piepildītos pravieša Jesajas vārds, kas saka: 15 Zebulona zeme un Naftaļa zeme, piejūras ceļš, Aizjordāna, citu tautu Galileja, 16 ļaudis, kas sēdēja tumsībā, redz lielu gaišumu, un tiem, kas sēdēja nāves zemē un ēnā, gaisma uzlēkusi. - 17 No tā laika Jēzus iesāka sludināt, sacīdams: "Atgriezieties no grēkiem, jo Debesu valstība tuvu klāt pienākusi." 18 Un, staigādams gar Galilejas jūru, Jēzus ieraudzīja divi brāļus, Sīmani, sauktu Pēteri, un Andreju, viņa brāli, tīklu jūrā izmetam, jo tie bija zvejnieki. 19 Un Viņš uz tiem saka: "Nāciet Man līdzi, Es jūs darīšu par cilvēku zvejniekiem." 20 Un tie tūdaļ atstāja savus tīklus un sekoja Viņam. 21 Un, no turienes tālāk iedams, Viņš ieraudzīja citus divi brāļus, Jēkabu, Cebedeja dēlu, un Jāni, viņa brāli, laivā kopā ar savu tēvu Cebedeju tīklus lāpām, un Viņš tos aicināja. 22 Un tie tūdaļ atstāja laivu un savu tēvu un sekoja Viņam. 23 Un Jēzus staigāja pa visu Galileju, mācīdams viņu sinagogās un sludinādams Valstības evaņģēliju un dziedinādams visas slimības un sērgas tautā. 24 Un Viņa slava izpaudās pa visu Sīriju; un pie Viņa atnesa visus neveselos, dažādu sērgu un sāpju pārņemtus un velna apsēstus, mēnessērdzīgus un triekas ķertus, un Viņš tos dziedināja. 25 Un daudz ļaužu no Galilejas, no Dekapoles, no Jeruzālemes, no Jūdejas un no viņpus Jordānas gāja Viņam pakaļ.
1 Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil. 2 And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred. 3 And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread. 4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. 5 Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple, 6 And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone. 7 Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God. 8 Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; 9 And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me. 10 Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve. 11 Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him.
12 ¶ Now when Jesus had heard that John was cast into prison, he departed into Galilee; 13 And leaving Nazareth, he came and dwelt in Capernaum, which is upon the sea coast, in the borders of Zabulon and Nephthalim: 14 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, 15 The land of Zabulon, and the land of Nephthalim, by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles; 16 The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up.
17 ¶ From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
18 ¶ And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers. 19 And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men. 20 And they straightway left their nets, and followed him. 21 And going on from thence, he saw other two brethren, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in a ship with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and he called them. 22 And they immediately left the ship and their father, and followed him.
23 ¶ And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people. 24 And his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and those which were possessed with devils, and those which were lunatick, and those that had the palsy; and he healed them. 25 And there followed him great multitudes of people from Galilee, and from Decapolis, and from Jerusalem, and from Judaea, and from beyond Jordan.
